    They love handball over there. When I’ve seen it on tv I always thought it as soccer with hands or something. Or maybe since they couldn’t steal from native Americans they couldn’t invent lacrosse so they came up with this.

    It’s not since the boxer has clear advantages. Shoulders, arms, power, everything a man benefits from, this boxer has.
    You just want to live in some delusional world.

    I did. The boxer failed to get into worlds due to failing gender test. They didn’t even test testosterone levels.
    What reading should I be doing past that?

    You could just read everything people
    Have posted instead of repeating the same talking point. If you aren’t interested, I guess there’s nothing to say. If Islamic Algeria has fallen to gender ideology just wave the flag of surrender and live and let live.

    If that was the case then why has this boxer lost several bouts against women outside of the olympics?

    I have not read any comments here besides you and one other poster i also responded to.
    If you want, I can link articles and release by International Boxing Association on the matter.

    But my guess is you didn’t do any reading and just responding aimlessly here to be on “your side”.

    The now decertified IBA who won’t even say the nature of the test? Ok.

    https://www.washingtonpost.com/spor...-khelif-algerian-boxer-gender-paris-olympics/

    Here’s a comprehensive run down. If it doesn’t do it for you, well I don’t really care.

    It just gets dumber and dumber. Michael Phelps and LeBron James also have clear genetic advantages. But nobody cries that it's unfair. We're not even talking about a transgender person this time. It's a cisgender woman, yet y'all are on this idiotic nonsense. More proof that this was never about "protecting women's sports." Here the bigots are attacking biological females for being too masculine.

    BTW, the hateful dipshits are attacking Katie Ledecky for "being a man" too:

    To answer your question, there are literally hundreds of young black males available to choose from who shoot their fellow minorities on a nightly basis.

    Unfortunately a lot of people who should know better helped enable this by taking any of these people’s concerns seriously

    “It gets dumber and dumber”

    You could have just stopped there.

    Except they were against those with the same genetic makeup at the base level.

    I guess the International Boxing Association disagrees with you.

    Inman doesn't have XX chromosomes....

    This is not just someone with certain small advantages that Phelps had. This is someone who can build muscles and strength of a man but is allowed to fight women who cannot.

    Was Russia officially banned from the Olympics? I guess I missed that news story. I am assuming for their invasion of Ukraine. I did see that Ukraine has won 2 medals so far so that is good.

    There's nothing small about the advantages that Phelps, LeBron, and numerous others have. You only make yourself a joke when you attack biological females for having natural advantages over their competitors. That's how sports work. You are giving away the game. This isn't about protecting women or women's sports. It's about policing women. This time you can't even blame transgender people. Y'all are just being hateful and weird.

    And nobody cares what the IBA thinks. They're irrelevant. The IOC tossed them out for being corrupt clowns five years ago. The organization is now run by a Russian. The U.S. boycotted their world championship in 2023. They're not a serious organization. But hey, they're telling you what you want to hear, so you love them. No surprise.

    It is like soccer except in this case you can't touch the ball with your feet (trap it, kick it). Might be why they call it Handball and call soccer Football since in soccer you can't use your hands.
    Although in both the goalie can do whatever the f they want with hands and feet.
